How to successfully navigate the Drug-Device Combination Products Landscape: A Synergistic Success
Joint Workshop of AKRA TEAM GmbH &
Dr. Ebeling & Assoc. GmbH
Drug-Device-Combinations (DDCs) represent a heterogenous group of products, which are a combination of medical devices on one hand and pharmaceutical products on the other. This product group has evolved significantly over the past years as it bears a high potential of clinical benefits for treatment of various types of diseases.
The product spectrum ranges from simple prefilled syringes (filled with a drug component), auto injection devices to complex delivery on demand devices which are implanted (e.g. insulin pumps). Other devices represent a combination of a traditional medical device (e.g. a stent) coated with a pharmaceutical to improve the clinical outcome of the treatment (e.g. drug eluting stent). Depending on the principal mode of action, either the medical device regulation (Regulation 2017/745) or medicinal products directive (Directive 2001/83/EC) is the primary applicable legislation.
This has significant impact on the legislative processes to be applied. In addition, article 117 of the EU MDR specifically bears new obligations for pharmaceutical manufacturers.
This one-day workshop provided by specialists of AKRA TEAM GmbH and Dr. Ebeling & Assoc. GmbH will provide a structured step-by-step approach, how the different legislations are to be considered and applied for different types of DDCs.
